PR summary
Note that this would require meson-python 0.18.0, which was only released in May 2025, so we may not want to include this just yet.
It does fix the issue that that wheels do not include all licenses that we have in the sdist. Because of some discussion about the dynamicity of the license(-files) key, it does not automatically include the licenses of subprojects.
